TUMBLR! I DID IT! I MADE IT TO THE FINALS!

I am in the running for an Internship with The Mill LA or NYC, AND for the People’s Choice Award.

Thank you all so much for your support! I am so excited at the opportunity to have an internship, or even to win the People’s Choice. I didn’t think it was possible. I didn’t think my work was even on par with the other entries. So thank you, thank you, thank you.

If you haven’t already, now is definitely the time to vote!

I can’t do it without you :)

Hey followers, I know most of you probably follow my visual effects blog, but I figured I’d try and reach out to all of you.

If you have a spare moment, take a second to vote, comment, or share my entry to facebook! I am so close to winning! :)

If anyone follows me on instagram (@enaekelocin) I posted this one a week or two ago. We took apart the model’s face using the light hitting him and drew only the planes. This exercise was somewhat easy due to my daily experience with 3D. Tumbling around face models really helps me to think in 3D and to be able to accurately visualize forms in space.

Pan Pastel and charcoal on newsprint, 10-15 minute shadow massing exercise. I feel like this one most accurately captured the model of the day.

Shadow massing exercises! This was also our first serious day of drawing, so a lot of us were “working out the rust”.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately! I’m back in school and taking a portraiture drawing class. It’s been a lot of fun to take a break from the computer and exercise my charcoal skills. So far we have covered a lot on how to break up the face proportionally—utilizing measuring, sighting, planar analysis, and shadow massing to get a likeness. I’ll be uploading the class exercises soon and some odds & ends.

What I wore today…on the back of an envelope. I really want to draw more. I really really want to stop saying that all the time and actually do it.
